Xu Ke opened his laptop and read the current reports that his people sent him. Right now, he could already see the traces of the Ye Family's involvement in the matters of Xu Country. It seems that they wanted the country to have a civil war and directly benefit from it.

Too bad Xu Ke would never stop them from having a civil war. In fact, he would encourage them to do so. He stared at the reports for a few seconds before turning his gaze towards the screen, where he could see the cameras that were monitoring the movements of the people outside of this facility.

Right now, he couldn't actually focus on anything, mainly because of his great anticipation of the attack tonight. "Any movements?" he asked. To make sure that he would see everything, he asked the one in charge of the cameras to work inside his office.

"None, sir."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, sir."

"But — Can you check her room for me?"

"Yes, sir." The man started tapping into his keyboard, and the video switched to Lyca's room. When he saw her continue lying in the bed, unmoving. He let out a sigh of relief. Clearly, she was intoxicated earlier. However, he just wanted to make sure that she was really asleep.

"Alright, switch it back to — all videos must be pointed outside. She developed an armor that might be able to have some invisibility function. We need to be thorough."

Unbeknownst to him, the only reason why he couldn't see any attack from the outside is that Lyca was planning the attack from the inside of the facility.

The loud boom interrupted his stupor, he stood up. "What is going on?"

"Sir, there seems to be some kind of explosion from the labs…"

"Labs?" With that, he grabbed his coat and ran towards the lab. His frown deepened when someone — one of his employees — wearing a white lab coat stopped him from going inside the lab where they were trying to develop the amnesiac drug. "What is it?"

"The explosion came from the ventilation system." The man responded. "Sir, I suggest we evacuate the whole west side of the facility."

"Explain yourself!" Xu Ke hissed as he pushed the man away and walk past him.

"Sir, everyone is dead!" the man once again blocked his way.

"Dead?"

"A green gas caused the explosion! I saw it with my own eyes. I was just about to go inside and was taking a shower so I could change into my uniform when I saw the gas seeped through the ventilation from the shower. Then it went inside the lab. And that was when the explosion happened!"

It was as if the world narrowed in Xu Ke's eyes. He looked at the square glass on the door that would lead him to the part of the lab where people would shower to change into their lab coats. Across the door was another door made of thick, reinforced, frosted glass.

However, despite the frost in the glass, he could still see that the room had turned green.

*BOOM!* another explosion echoed, causing debris to fall from the walls. The entire facility seemed to tremble as another explosion followed.

"What the hell was that?"

Xu Ke let out a few curses before he went back to his office. "Reports!?"

"Sir, there are still no signs of people outside."

"But — there should be — there should be people outside!" Xu Ke's eyes were wide. Rage started to boil inside his veins. Without saying anything, he left the room and marched towards Lyca's laboratory. The acrid smell of chemicals made him frown.

"Sir, I believe it is best to leave the building now. We don't really know what kind of chemicals are — "

"Go and tell your men to follow me." Xu Ke ordered one of the head military personnel without even trying to listen to the officer's warnings. Despite all the chaos, Xu Ke managed to get a respirator to protect him from the gasses. The blaring alarm inside the building made everyone panic. Footsteps of people trying to get their own respirator masks can be heard everywhere.

"Sir, I suggest we— "

"Shut up! Take me to the Lyca's quarters…"

"But sir, the second and third explosion happened in that area. I'm afraid that— "

The man wasn't able to finish his sentence when a knife impaled him in the heart, he stared at Xu Ke, wide-eyed. "Sir…"

"I hate people that talk a lot." Xu Ke pulled the hunting knife and used the man's uniform to wipe the blood on its blade. "Now… all of you are going to shut up and take me to Lyca safely."

The six other people looked at each other before they nodded and started walking towards Lyca's quarters.

"You! Take off your respirator!" Xu Ke ordered.

"Yes, sir!" Without any choice, the young soldier took off his respirator and almost immediately, his face contorted. He grabbed his throat, eyes wide as she started coughing up blood. Seeing this, Xu Ke ordered someone to help the man put his respirator back on.

He squinted his eyes towards the thick fog-like white and greenish gas that is starting to block their vision. Even his eyes beneath the full-face respirator are starting to tingle. "We need to hurry before the gas would fill this whole place up!" This time, Xu Ke's calm heart started beating, his hand started sweating.

He couldn't help but wonder if this was Lyca's way of killing herself or it was something else. Was it the vials that she spilled on the lab?

However, before they could even walk ten meters, the man who removed his respirator earlier started trembling as he fell on the floor with a loud thud.

"Hel — " the man wasn't able to finish his words before his eyes turned white, his face turned green.

"Sir— "

"Leave him!" Xu Ke said indifferently. "He died because he is weak! Let's continue! The of you! Walk in front of me! The others protect the back!"
